Basketball n stuff

Who ever knew playing basketball would cost so much! Brenn went and played basketball a few nights ago with some friends and while playing he took a charge (don't ask me what that is cause I don't know haha) and caught himself with his right hand. He continued to play for about 45 min after that and stopped cause he was hurting and said his arm wasn't quite working right haha (not nice to laugh but it sounds funny) He came home and he did not sleep at all I don't think. I kept asking him if he wanted me to take him to the ER but he figured he would just wait it out until morning. The doc was able to get him in and even she thought he just had soft tissue damage but still sent him for an x-ray (thank goodness) and sure enough he broke his arm at the head of the radius. Just a tiny bit further up his arm and it would have been his elbow and that would have meant surgery for sure! So he is in a hard splint until Thursday when he will be x-rayed again and they will decide from there if he gets a hard cast or gets to go back into a hard splint. His hand started swelling yesterday and I am thinking it is because we have been go go going since it happened but then today he says how bad his wrist is hurting and I don't think they checked his wrist at his appointment so first thing tomorrow morning I guess we get to call again and ask about that. So the next time he goes to play basketball I hope he remembers he isn't a young buck anymore and that he can't play like a young kid can!

HIVES!! That is my problem! I get covered in hives every couple of months for weeks on end and the doc hasn't a clue why so I am to see an allergist and have testing done. I actually had my appointment scheduled for the day my husband went in to the docs but had to cancel. He wanted me with him and I didn't have a problem with that. So now my appointment is rescheduled for March 4th and I am really hoping they will find some answers. These are hives that NOTHING helps. It even took a few days worth of taking prednisone to get them to calm down.

My sweet girls!! They are off from school for a few days due to Presidents Day and parent teacher conferences. They are already at each others throats. I remember arguing with my sisters but not when we were this young! If its not someone fighting its someone tattling. Don't get me wrong they do get along and when they do its quite well, but man oh man some days I think I am going to loose my mind!

Our Valentines Day has been nice. We had a day of not doing much at all except watching movies, making sketti and the girls played the wii (Rockband) It was a nice relaxing day for a change. I hope you all have had a wonderful day with those you love!

Is it spring time yet??!!

Oh man, I heard about his arm-these guys just think they are younger than they are! My hubby sprained his ankle that same night-I told him he needs to take up BINGO at the Senior Center!
Hopefully the doc can figure out what's going on with your hives, that doesn't sound fun at all!
Good luck!
